GCRF COMPASS at the Third Annual Tartu Conference on Russian and East European Studies

Between 10th and 12th of June, researchers of the GCRF COMPASS project will be attending the Third Annual Tartu Conference on Russian and East European Studies, which is held at the University of Tartu (Estonia). The team will be presenting their work in two panels organised by the project. The panels’ aim is to discuss different challenges for regional security and capacity-building in the region – in line with the project’s key themes.

The second panel furthermore builds on Kent’s partnership with the University of Tartu in light of the H2020 Twinning UPTAKE project.

The consortium’s participation in the conference is the first collective event regarding Research Integration. We aim at regular joint participation in conferences from now on, and will also work at joint outputs resulting from the attendance in Tartu.​

Researchers presenting their work are: Anar Valiyev (ADA University), Munira Shahidi and Nargis Nurulla-Khozhaeva (Tajik National University), Akram Umarov and Sherzod Abdullaev (UWED), Leonardo Pataccini (University of Tartu), Alisa Dekhtiarenko and Roza Turarbekava (Belarusian State University), and Eske van Gils (University of Kent). The two panels will be chaired by the project’s PI Elena Korosteleva and Co-I Siddharth Saxena.
